SO..... the album's finally here!

 

What do we all think? Disappointed with the lack of promo online (this site started with a bang then slowly stopped) but looking forward to what could be Mr Jones' best work.

 

Also, where is this Depp-directed video?!

It's finally arrived! I am going to listen to it until my boyfriend turns it off when he gets home from work!

I think 'Ex-maniac' his best post Lo-fi album. Quite a feat. I was having a discussion the other day about how many artists that have produced their best albums after 5 or more releases (and that's not including lo-fi's for BB). Couldn't think of many.

I've been a massive fan of the Lo-fi albums ever since Bad Shave came out and although each 'full band' album has had it's moments they have always, in my view, had a high percentage of shouting (rather than singing) - the songs he really can't manage with his vocal range. His voice suits a more melancholy delivery (I use a collection of his softer Lo-fi songs to get my 2 year old son to sleep).

So even though we still have the big songs (Unloveable, etc.) he's not trying to belt them out as hard as usual. I think he should stick to this approach. Fatherhood has obviously been good for him. 'For The Rest Of Our Lives' is a thing of beauty ....the soppy old 'bar steward'.
